can you tell us what's driving that change? >> yeah. i think you have to continue to be cautiously optimistic for the emerging markets because obviously there's a growth story there. there's a lot of growth that investors want to capture. there's still a lot of outstanding risk. we saw a lot of that risk play out this year both on the government side, the reform side, as well as currencies. so i think there's definitely a handful of risks. and you have to kind of -- the play for emerging markets is change. i think when you used to invest as efts, you have to look at the markets differently. i think you have to be more careful. >> all right. let's focus on india. i know you just got back from a long trip where you were evaluating the investment landscape in india. obviously we've seen a lot of foreign investors allocate capital into this market. we are looking at the rupee depreciating significantly over the last year. the company dealing with other problems including lack of infrastructure, some policy changes. what is your recent -- i
